Ok. I understand that for a sleep study they want you unmedicated so they can see how you actually sleep naturally. But, people, I WILL NOT SLEEP without my medication, so it's kind of pointless to see how I sleep if I won't sleep.

Also, naturally /= withdrawing from medication regimen.

Well, yes. There is that as well. She told me to have my psychopharm call if he wants to over-rule them. I see him today. I'm sure he's going to over-rule. He's kind of like that.

Any English teachers around? What age range would you say Island of the Blue Dolphins is written towards?

Amazon gives it as a 9-12 age range which seems about right. I think I read it in fifth grade.

I read it in class in 6th grade.

Ok. Thanks. It's a little old for my kids, which I was afraid of.

Are you looking for anything specific, vw, or just something enjoyable you can read to the kids?

I'm looking for a classic, or I guess it doesn't have to be a classic, that they probably haven't read. My kids range in age from 4-10. I'm thinking about using it on Thursdays, which is imagination day--start with reading a chapter or two, then have the kids do some sort of imaginative activity afterwards (today I'm thinking of having them draw an image from the story that really struck them...which I will explain in much younger terminology to them...I've got some sketch paper and colored pencils for this activity).

Anne of Green Gables?
